S2CR White Line Science Edition (WiSE) series of underwater acoustic modems offers an open environment for network protocol
developers, providing a flexible framework for testing new network protocols on real hardware - the new S2CR WiSE acoustic modems facilitate an embedded developer sandbox of up to 32 GB. The EvoLogics WiSE toolchain allows to build custom firmware
modules for S2C modems and opens endless opportunities for new implementations.
All S2CR WiSE modems provide a preinstalled NS-2/NS-Miracle - an extended version of the popular network simulator that supports simulation of TCP, routing and multicast protocols over communication networks. Without rewriting the code, existing NS-2
network protocol scripts can now be run directly on acoustic modems, making S2C WiSE a time- and cost-effective hardware
solution that does not require additional coding and eliminates the need to interface each node of the test network to a dedicated
host PC with NS-2.
Implementing the patented S2C technology, the EvoLogics WiSE modems offer all the benefits of the main EvoLogics S2CR modem
range. S2CR WiSE modems are available in a variety of configurations to suit a wide range of application scenarios.
Enables to test new underwater network protocols and/or application solutions without underwater modems
A time-saver for code debugging and refinement
Supports several virtual modems at once
Offers the freedom of working over remote access
Solutions, designed and tested with the emulator, are easy to export to modem hardware
The S2CR underwater acoustic modem emulator a new tool that offers more flexibility for underwater network protocol developers
and end-users of EvoLogics underwater acoustic modems.
A real-time emulator of the S2CR-series underwater acoustic modems, this tool is aimed at optimizing underwater network protocol
development by taking out expensive modem hardware from the early testing stages - it emulates all features of the modems datalink protocol layer and includes a simulator of the physical protocol layer.
A network of virtual underwater acoustic modems, configured and run on EvoLogics server, can be accessed remotely and provides a hardware-free framework for development and training. Any code, written and run on the modem emulator, can be later
run on the actual modem hardware without any modifications, offering a time-saving solution that minimizes development costs for
upper layer network protocols and simplifies integration of acoustic modems into underwater infrastructure.
